Who will be Jai Shah’s successor? BCCI has taken the decision, will the final decision be taken in the meeting on this day?

BCCI Special General Meeting Date: Jay Shah took over as the new ICC Chairman on December 1, 2024, since then the post of BCCI Secretary is lying vacant. Just a few weeks ago, Board of Control for Cricket in India President Roger Binny had appointed Devjit Saikia as the interim secretary, but it was also said that efforts would be made to make a permanent appointment to the post of secretary as soon as possible. Meanwhile, a new update has come out that the Board is going to call a special meeting on January 12 to appoint the new Secretary and Treasurer of BCCI.

The BCCI constitution says that it is mandatory for a new appointment to be made on any vacant post within 45 days. Quoting PTI, a state cricket association said, “After the council meeting held on Thursday, a message was sent to all the state cricket associations regarding a special general meeting. The meeting will be held at the BCCI headquarters on January 12.” Let us tell you that along with Jai Shah, Ashish Shelar had left the post of Treasurer, who has got the post of Cabinet Minister in the recently formed new Maharashtra government.

According to the same report, the message sent by the board read, “Since the posts of Secretary and Treasurer have become vacant, it is necessary to fill these posts through the election process in the Special General Meeting.” Former Election Commissioner Achal Kumar Jyoti has been declared the election officer for these internal elections of BCCI. Let us tell you that Achal Kumar Jyoti was the Election Commissioner of India from July 2017 to January 2018. At present Devjit Saikia is holding the post of interim secretary of BCCI, on the other hand the post of treasurer is lying vacant. It is expected that the selection for both the posts will be unanimous.
